What is an organelle? - answerGroup of complex molecules that help the cell survive
What do ALL cells contain? - answerDNA, RNA, and protein synthesis ability
What does each cell consist of? - answerNucleic acids, cytoplasm, and cell membrane
How does cell life begin? - answerWith sexual or asexual reproduction
What makes up tissue? - answercollection of cells
What makes up organs? - answerCollection of tissues
What do ribosomes do? - answerSynthesize proteins from amino acids
Where can ribosomes be embedded? - answerEndoplasmic reticulum
What is the golgi complex? - answersynthesizing materials that are brought into the cell.
Where is the golgi complex located? - answerNear the nucleus.
What is the golgi complex made of? - answerLayered membrane
What are vacuoles? - answerSacs used for storage, digestion and waste removal
How many vacuoles does a plant cell have? - answer1 large vacuole
, Can animal cells have more than one vacuole? - answerYes
What is a vesicle? - answerIt is a small organelle within a cell.
What does the membrane of a vesicle do? - answerMoves materials within a cell
What is the cytoskeleton made up of? - answerMicrotubules that help shape and
support the cell.
What is a microtubule? - answerPart of the cytoskeleton to support the cell.
What are microtubules made up of? - answerProtein
What is cytosol? - answerMaterial inside of the cell.
What is cytosol made up of? - answerMostly water, but can have other floating
molecules.
What is the cell membrane? - answerDefines the cell by acting as a barrier
What does the cell membrane do? - answerHelps keep the cytoplasm inside and foreign
substances outside.
What are the two types of endoplasmic reticulum? - answerSmooth and Rough
What does rough endoplasmic reticulum have? - answerRibosomes on the outside
What is the endoplasmic reticulum? - answerA tubular network that acts as a transport
system.
Fused to the nuclear membrane and extends into cytoplasm.
What does the mitochondria do? - answerDevelops ATP, assists cell growth/death
Do mitochondria contain their own DNA? - answerYes! it is separate from the nucleus.
List the 4 functions of the mitochondria - answer1. Cell energy
